Should holiday events like the Halloween event and the upcoming Christmas one be included here? We don't have explicit names or icons for them like we do for Star Paths, but they're events nevertheless, and I think the community would benefit from having past events documented and current events outlined. If they're located elsewhere on the wiki, maybe they should be linked to here.—Dukewhite (talk) 23:51, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

New Category

I think maybe a third event category would be good here - for those events which don't actually happen inside game, but are tracked/progressed outside and then the rewards are mailed (Twitch Drops, Dreamlight Park Community Challenge). 'Community Events' sounds more appropriate - but I also think it sounds a bit 'unofficial' and maybe implies the events are managed by the community. -- Marblemadmax (talk) 23:57, 12 April 2023 (UTC)

I agree on both points -- that name doesn't feel quite right, but it does seem like they warrant their own type of category. I'm coming up blank on any better nomenclature atm though... perhaps something with the word "External" in it. Lizz (talk) 00:12, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Denoting current events?

Having current events at the top is convenient for a quick glance, but I think it gets a bit wonky when there are active events from multiple categories? Currently only the active star path is at the top, even though there are other active events happening. We could attempt using color, but no color will necessarily be an intuitive meaning of "current"... or just move Eggstravaganza and Dreamlight Park Community Challenge up to the top, but then it isn't super obvious what type of event they are (though, perhaps from their names alone, it will be?) I don't know, thoughts? Lizz (talk) 17:03, 23 April 2023 (UTC)
